I didnt write pihole - just the template so that unraid users could install it .... Can you ask the authors here: https://github.com/pi-hole/pi-hole/issues

New PiHole docker has been released.... looks nice!

Looking on the PiHole docker site, they elected not to include it in PiHole as standard. I would suggest an easier way would be to use the Cloudflared docker container and point the dns output from PiHole to go there. Let me know if you need help.

unless you set the vpn to use pihole, it will use another dns.

You should be able to turn off Dhcp on the WAN side to do this. Also look at ddwrt software for it. https://wiki.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Netgear_WNDR3700

You can set the router to point to pihole.... that isn't a problem. If you do this, set the unraid IP settings manually to point to external DNS server

Yes - how to fix.... Your unRaid is probably looping back through pihole.... on network settings, set a fixed ip, gateway and dns server.

maybe you have your data volume set up wrong? copy your flows out and save in a text file, delete/update container (check directories) and reinstall flows if needed...

can you try this: In the appdata directory/dsnmasq.d/02-custom-LAN.conf file, it refers to adding hosts to appdata directory/pihole/custom-LAN.list file. You will need to create it if not there..... Let me know...

Do you mean persistance? Take a look in the config file and edit the following to suit: persistence false persistence_file mosquitto.db persistence_location /config/data/

... Or I could just rename the template as V2 and mark the original as depreciated? What works best do you think?

Ok, useful feedback but that wasn't my experience. I changed the repository line and applied.

yes - you should change to this new repository. Unfortunately when I updated the template, this does not roll down to existing users

You can check the Docker release versions here: https://hub.docker.com/r/pihole/pihole/tags/ The latest official "release" was delivered 2 months ago. You can try the dev_amd64 or dev releases if you wish.

I used to do the same - and had a similar problem. Does this solve it for you too? https://github.com/node-red/node-red-docker/issues/15 ( add this to the extra parameters in template: --device=/dev/ttyUSB1 --user=root ) or other user.....

see here: https://nodered.org/docs/platforms/docker Edit the template and set Repository to nodered/node-red-docker:v8 it was mentioned here in the github link you sent: https://github.com/AYapejian/node-red-contrib-home-assistant/issues/52#issuecomment-385034497

yes, use the unraid scripts plugin to automate that once a day. It is what I used to set the password before it was exposed to the template

I understand and agree - I guess that in future I should just do a v2 template

np, I'm not sure why it doesn't replicate to everyone.

Click on icon and choose edit - you will see the repository

I believe that there is a way of forcing the traffic and dns through openvpn - but its not something I am experienced with. May be best to ask in the OpenVPN topic.

I wrote the template that pulls in the Official Docker Container from PiHole. I swapped over from my unofficial one a long time ago that that a fully supported version could be distributed. Make sure that your repository for pihole is = pihole/pihole:latest and not the old diginc repository. If you use the latest tag, you should have v 4.0.0-1. The release tags are here: https://hub.docker.com/r/pihole/pihole/tags/ The last update to the docker image was 12 days ago. Apparently you should not do an update within the docker image (that was what diginc said - although that may have changed) If you have a problem with the docker image, you should ask about it here: - https://discourse.pi-hole.net/ or on the github here:- https://github.com/pi-hole/pi-hole/issues

Hi - I'm stupid!. I made a silly mistake on the changes to the docker template. It should start working soon. Reply here and let me know if the changes happen in the next day or so. If not, change the repository to pihole/pihole:latest

Hi @Squid ==== please ignore. I'm stupid. I left some extra xml tags in the template which confused it ==== For some reason my pihole template doesn't show the changes I made two weeks ago. Is it something that I have done wrong on the template?. https://github.com/spants/unraidtemplates/tree/master/Spants cheers Tony

I use the same repo without issues... Is your nodeRed port open to the world?. edit: Add more info from the entry on the NodeRed mailing list that Stupifier created: https://discourse.nodered.org/t/crypto-miner-abuse-malware/3397/3 .... I think that he had left the port 1880 open on his firewall: Be careful out there!
